I'm again turning to the best experts around,
the ShopTalk group! Just to keep on topic, we're
looking at asphalt paving our driveway, parking and
trailer turn-around area (it's currently gravel). The
adjoining flower beds, currently restrained by old
4x4 timbers will be redesigned into a more
"curving style" edges rather than the strict straight
edges as required by the 4x4 timbers.
I'm looking for a durable but not too costly material.
Labor cost is an issue, as I will not be doing this
myself. I've been through the multiple lathe bender boards
and would like something better. Also, not a fan of
the plastic edging board that seems to last about
1 year. There must be better options.
Anyone familiar with the rammed continuous concrete
edging> Cost? How about long lengths of steel, about
3-4" wide and retained by large spikes?
Any other suggestions?
